Different

i was never the girl who played with dolls or got her ears pierced when she was a baby

i was the type who played sports with her two older brothers and stayed home being lazy

i didn't have two parents who loved each other dearly or go to church like all the others

i was the one with the divorced parents and my mom wasn't in the PTA with other mothers

i was on the outside looking in and now i look back at how my life could have been

i am good at imagining things, but my life is what made me what i am today

and when you look at me now, you would think my past life was okay

i guess some people are oblivious to the fact

that what others thought were normal, that's what i lacked

but now i thank God for making me different

i was the gift He sent
